Dortmund can dominate injured PSG
Dortmund head to the Parc des Princes with a 1-0 lead after last week’s success in Germany and Price is underestimating Die Borussen’s chances of getting the job done.
Niklas Fulkrug’s strike in front of the yellow wall would allow Edin Terzic’s men to sit with a 1-0 lead, eliminating PSG’s most powerful weapon.
Kylian Mbappe has been an excellent performer for the red and blues, but without space on the counter-attack the Frenchman’s pace will not be as valuable.
Luis Enrique’s men have benefited from having a clear week to prepare for their European commitments and the Parisians move towards the Ligue 1 title. However, there are much tougher tests to overcome on the continent, and PSG will have to do it without Lucas Hernandez and Presnel Kimpembe.
It is worth remembering that the French team had suffered defeats at Newcastle and Milan in the group stage of the competition and were heading home, before Ronald Araujo’s red card set up their quarter-final with Barcelona.
At 11/10, Dortmund look a good bet to move to Wembley Way on June 1.

Disappointment could lead to caution for PSG
PSG have been shown 29 yellow cards in the Champions League this season and it has brought back memories of past European indiscipline.
The red and blues were shown four yellow cards when they lost to Real Madrid in this competition two years ago, and they received four cautions and a red card when Manchester City knocked them out of the Champions League three years ago. But they hardly looked like a football team. First.
Achram Hakimi has been cautioned three times in this season’s competition and looks like a fine price to pay for entering the referee’s notebook.
PSG vs Borussia Dortmund Tip 2: Achram Hakimi will be given a card – 90 minutes with Betano at 16/5
Disciplined Dortmund can keep the goal count low
PSG need to find the net to get back into the contest, but that doesn’t mean the goals will keep coming in Paris.
Dortmund have the discipline and structure to keep PSG at bay, and it is not in Dortmund’s interests for this second leg to devolve into a ding-dong battle.
Chances were limited in Die Borussen’s 1-0 first-leg win at Signal Iduna Park and it could be a similar story in the return leg.
